Kenwood Trunking?

I am just wondering what formats of Trunking Kenwood Offers?
Also, what kind of MDC Functionality does Kenwood offer?, Does Kenwood have their own kind of MDC?[
Also, does Kenwood have a P25/LTR or Kenwood Trunking Radio that can work off Analog Trunking and P25 Conventional?
I am looking into LTR Trunking and P25 Conventional, Does Kenwood have a radio that will offer both?

I know Kenwood offers LTR and I believe passport, they have MPT trunking radios also.
Yes they have their own proprietary MDC type called Fleetsync. If you have a TK2180 or 3180 radio
MDC-1200 is now available by firmware upgrade and new programming software. It will work just like a Motorola radio with MDC-1200, it will show ID's or aliases and decode emergency calls and do radio stun etc. I have heard the TK5210 5310 P25 portables also have a firmware upgrade to do MDC-1200. Offering both is probably not possible due to the differences in LTR and Apco 25. Just like you cannot have Fleetsync and MDC-1200, it has to be one or the other.
